There are good reasons to consider Marine Insurance from AIG

Emerging markets

As goods cross borders by land, air or sea keeping control becomes
increasingly difficult. Globalisation has made trade with less
developed countries a reality, where weaker logistics infrastructure
and theft may pose threats to freight delivery.

Managing your risks

AIG provides a risk prevention service (known as Marine Loss Control
Engineering) so our customers can rely on a specialised entity to
monitor their risks and to work on reducing the potential for losses
or damage.

International is our middle name

AIG can combine technical efficiency with a pragmatic business
approach, while employing our broad international network to ensure
the best possible protection for our customers’ assets and their
business reputation.

Maintaining expectations

Technological advances have created high expectations by customers in
terms of manufacture and delivery. Supply chains need to be protected
from disruption and the negative impacts on customer loyalty, company
reputation and cash flow.
